For over 50 years, Montana law has protected the property rights of landowners by allowing them to create their own zoning districts. The process, known as Part 1 Zoning, has been used throughout the state. Property owners don’t have to wait for unresponsive local governments to protect their properties; by following proper procedures they can create their own small-scale zoning districts to protect property values, farmland and rural landscapes.
